In reverse order: Good. We have used JAM/DBi to develop a hotel front desk system. The combination works great. JAM is a great text-mode screen painter. It seems to be a pretty good Windows tool, though for Windows Powerbuilder looks better (I have not used PowerBuilder). JYACC is a good company and is easy to work with. If I were starting development now, I'd hammer on them for a 6.0 version, even beta. It's supposed to have tighter database integration. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jim Burks jburks@promus.com The Promus Companies Memphis, Tennessee, USA
